“Michele is a wonderful dog-sitter! She is very knowledgeable about dogs. We met in advance of my dog’s stay so Michele could ensure compatibility and understand his needs and routine. My dog has separation anxiety, and Michele was extremely caring and accommodating. She sends photos and messages frequently. This was my first experience using Rover, and I have booked another sitting with her for May 2026. Thank you, Mickey!”

“Megan watched our Charlotte and kept us up-to date with her activities. She cared for Charlotte as if she was her own! This was definitely an upgrade to leaving her at a kennel. Megan is super kind and thoughtful. Our Charlotte loved her vacation so we could, stress free, enjoy ours.”

“Leaving our dog, Mazie with Sandee gives us total peace of mind. She is incredibly reliable and communicative, sending us multiple updates and photos daily. It is comforting to see how happy and relaxed Mazie is in her care. We always return to a happy, healthy dog and feel completely confident that everything is taken care of. We're very grateful that we have found her and highly recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy and experienced sitter.”

“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”

About: I am a proud pup and kitty parent. I have been taking care of pets professionally sine 2005. I provide daily dog walking, doggie boarding and kitty pet sitting services in the Milton area. Fabulous references to attest to my quality care. Contact me for a free consult. I look forward to adding you to the Animal Lovers family! I accept dogs that are friendly to all dogs and humans. No aggressive behaviors. I also can only accept potty trained dogs. I can administer medications and only work outside the home part-time so can easily provide potty breaks and walks every 4 hours. My dog Benny is very friendly and loves doggie company! I am available for daily dog walking Monday thru Friday and petsitting 7 days per week. I am available for boarding as schedule permits as I only take 1 dog, dog family, at a time. I have a home in Milton with a 6 foot privacy fence. I have 1 pup, a Yorkie poo who is used to welcoming fun pup friends. I am never out of my home more than 4 hours when I have pup boarders. Your pup(s) is my priority and treated like a member of my family.

“Mary Sue exceeded our expectations!! By far the best Rover experience we’ve ever had and we have had SO SO MANY all over the U.S. She sent us updates with pictures a few times a day around the same time which we really appreciated. She was so sweet and kind and made sure our dogs were taken care of. They loved being with her and I can’t wait for Mary Sue to watch them again next year!!”

“5-stars for Jen G! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I think we’re all nervous leaving our fur babies with a new sitter. No worries with Jen. She treats them like her own and they get spoiled with love and attention. Her assistants Baxter and Rigby were a joy for our Tanner to play with. He can’t wait to return! Jen’s communication along with many hilarious photos from their playtime were excellent and reassuring. Thank you, Jen!”

“Susan & Bob are absolutely fantastic! After bad experiences for Luna in the past, her stay was nothing short of perfect! We did a meet & greet before the stay to make sure Luna would be comfortable there and after meeting these two, I could not imagine my Luna staying anywhere else. They are super hospitable, provided plenty of communication and photos during her stay, and are genuinely great people. I cannot express my gratitude enough and am so lucky to have found them! They even shared some tips for getting Luna to not pull on the leash, which has been life-changing. Thanks again, Susan & Bob!”

We left Frankie with Paige and Cameron for the first time this past weekend. They took excellent care of Frankie who is a small older dog. We have not left him with anyone other than family for quite a few years. When we picked Frankie up he was calm and happy. We received many pictures and updates. We will definitely use them again!! I like that they only watch one dog at a time and receive one on one attention.

Sandra took the time to meet with our dogs prior to boarding, sent several updates throughout their stay, and made me feel comfortable leaving them in her care. Most importantly, my dogs seemed to love her. I plan to come to Sandra for any future boarding needs!

Outstanding care for the pet we both love. Having the grandkids was such a plus. Fiona adores children, and the kids loved her. She was so well cared for, she wasn’t all that anxious to come home with me. I think we may have to get ourselves another child to keep Fiona happy.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Harbeson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Harbeson on Rover is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $83 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 181 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Harbeson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

91% of sitters in Harbeson can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Harbeson home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Harbeson.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Harbeson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in DE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
